Is Trimethoprim Causing Dehydration?
Hi I ve been drinking plenty of fluids as I should be (maybe slightly more tea than I should be) but no matter how much ive been drinking, my urine indicates that I m dehydrated or not drinking enough. Now ive just started taking trimethoprim again which is for acne but it never effected things last time I was taking it so I don t think its that

Hello,
I understand your concern.
Dehydration is found among people who take Trimethoprim.
So during the period that you are taking this medication I suggest to use a lot of liquids.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
